Ecosystem Marketplace, a project of the non-profit organization Forest Trends, is pleased to announce the upcoming release of our State of Forest Carbon Markets 2011 report. We will be launching this report in Washington, DC, San Francisco, and London, and invite you to attend.

Report authors and a panel of market players and experts will discuss the latest findings from this one-of-a-kind report, as well as the future outlook and drivers of the marketplace. The forest carbon markets have grown dramatically since Ecosystem Marketplace’s first State of the Forest Carbon Markets report, so come join us to learn more about this rapidly evolving marketplace, where it has come from, and where it is going.

Space is limited for each of the following events, so we encourage you to RSVP soon to secure a spot for you and any guests. The three launch events will be happening at the following times and locations:

This launch event is sponsored by Forest Carbon Group, Face the Future, and Markit

Note: The London launch event is taking place on the eve of the 11th Dialogue on Forests, Governance, and Climate Change, co-hosted by the Rights and Resources Initiative, Forest Trends, and the Forest Peoples Programme. The event will focus on the issues and outlook for REDD+ financing, engaging a broad and diverse set of stakeholders and leaders regarding REDD+. Find out more and RSVP to attend this Dialogue from the RRI website here.

The State of the Forest Carbon Markets 2011 report would not be possible without the interest and support of our readers, sponsors, donors, and the participation and insights of hundreds of project developers and market players. Thank you all for your support, and we look forward to seeing you at one of our launches!
